Why taxes in California, New York and Illinois may soon increase
Connecticut is considered the richest state in the country per capita, but the state’s debt is more than $ 53 billion. This means that taxpayers may have to save the state through tax increases, writes Fox Business.
Connecticut is not the only state struggling with a debt crisis. California, Illinois, New Jersey, and New York due to heavy debts cannot pay their pensions on time to government employees who have reached retirement age.
In Illinois, sellers have been waiting months for the government to start making payments, Republican Mitch Daniels said. The state has $30 billion in debt. New York has more than $356 billion, New Jersey has more than $104 billion, and California has more than $428 billion.
Daniels assumes that, most likely, the authorities of these states will solve the problem of debts at the expense of taxpayers, therefore, in the mentioned states, where taxes are already high enough, taxes may still be raised.
